Our first, and only, regular show this month comes from Primus Luta with his monthly RIPL installment. Delayed by our own troubles here in Tokyo, it’s the usual dose of fresh new music, recent favourites and some killer cuts.

Up this month we’ve got recent releases and new music from the Brainfeeder camp with Taylor McFerrin, Mono/Poly, Matthewdavid and Jeremiah Jae (all of which are out now/soon), more from Lopez’s excellent release for Keep Up, Shlohmo, Mophono, 2562, Mexicans with Guns, Robot Koch & John Robinson, Profisee, Damu and Downliners Sekt as well as forthcoming bits from Kode 9 & Spaceape, 1000Names, The Truth, Seefeel and Wagon Christ.

As always you can download and/or stream below or simply subscribe to our RSS/iTunes/newsletter and receive the shows in your inbox automatically. Just press the relevant buttons below to make the magic happen.

We’ll resume normal broadcast in April, with myself and Raid System presenting a joint show from Tokyo. More details soon. We’ll also have a series of exclusive podcasts from Ken One’s recent Skratch Evolution 3 show, featuring live sets from Hifana, Ken One, Raid System, and more. Until then enjoy and remember to buy a copy of the Nihon Kizuna compilation – all proceeds of which go to the Japan Red Cross.

So with a little delay here comes the February podcast from my good self, aptly retitled to March pt.1 – expect another show end of month as usual. With the shorter amount of days last month and relentless work I’ve had to finish before my upcoming trip (more on that soon) it just wasn’t possible to get the show done in time without rushing it. Add to this the fact that this instalment is a seriously heavy affair and I felt it was only right to take a few more days and give you something worthwhile.

Putting the tracklist together I’ve just realised that out of 41 tracks in this show, 34 are forthcoming – a good reflection of the quality and amount of good music we’ve been privileged to receive in the inbox. And there were another 10 odd tracks I wanted to include. This month’s show is also a reflection of labels we’re feeling this year. Brainfeeder, Flying Lotus’ musical child, is the subject of our mini feature with new music from Mono/Poly, Taylor McFerrin, Matthewdavid and Jerimiah Jae covering the spectrum from blunted beats to smooth, modern jazz. And then we’ve also got the Friends of Friends label (close friends of ours) represented with 3 tracks from upcoming releases by Shlomho, Groundislava and Mexicans with Guns, our other good friends at Project Mooncircle are featured with two recent releases from Robot Koch & John Robinson and Long Arm and then there’s Car Crash Set who’ve sent us new music from Pixelord and John Lemmon (awesome name btw).

Elsewhere we’ve got new music from Uncle Lew & Coco B, Kode 9 & The Spaceape, Julio Bashmore, SCB, Danny Drive Thru, Lorn, Non Projects, Rick Wilhite, Austin Peralta, Subeena, Quantic, Chrissy Murderbot, Om Unit, Nicolas Jaar, Lopez, Siriusmo, Royalty, 1000 Names, Prefuse 73 and more – covering a broad range of music. I somehow feel that this month’s show really lives up to our tagline of discerning music for discerning ears. It changes and moves and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did putting it together.

As always be sure to check the artists and labels (all linked below) if you feel the music. Download and/or stream below or simply subscribe to the RSS/iTunes/newsletter to get the goodies directly in your inbox.

I’ll be back late march – live from Tokyo as I’ll be in Japan for six weeks from next week. Expect some udpates on the site in that time, guest mixes from our FoF series, Skyence and more including a mega special secret download dropping in the next two weeks. No more details but it will be worth it trust me. I’ll also be joining the Raid System boys on March 25th for a special party in Tokyo that’ll be broadcast on Ustream. More details soon.

Meanwhile enjoy, bump loud and share.

As hinted on our twitter last week, we’re very happy to bring you a world premiere this fine Monday morning in the shape of a celebratory mix from the Project Mooncircle label. What’s the celebration? The label’s 50th release, a worthy landmark of achievement for a small, indie label that has always stuck to its guns and not compromised its aims and music over its 7 years of existence. And considering the way the music industry has been going in the last decade, said landmark is even more worthy of celebration.

So with all this mind, Gordon and the whole crew have put together a retrospective mix celebrating the label’s 50 releases and featuring music from 30 artists who have each graced the label at one point or another in time, from MC/producers such as MF Doom, John Robinson and Lewis Parker to forward thinking producers such as 40 Winks, Jahbitat, Robot Koch, Lambent and Mr. Cooper. Also included in the mix are previews of new releases from Obba Suppa and Japanese beat maker Kan Sano.

The whole thing is lovely mixed and put together by the PMC crew and comes with special made artwork which the crew put together on a wall in Berlin at night last week. So without further ado I’ll leave you with some words from the PMC crew and a link to d/l or stream the mix. As Gordon pointed out when we were talking last week, Rhythm Inc was the first show on European airwaves to air PMC’s music 6 years ago when Trick and Waxfactor started on Resonance FM and I remembered discovering them and the Beta Bodega coalition thanks to the show, so it’s a real pleasure and honour to be there again 7 years on to celebrate the label’s achievements.

Massive thanks to Gordon and the PMC family for the love on this mix. Enjoy!

Rhythm Incursions, HHV.DE & Project: Mooncircle present: PMC050 ANNIVERSARY MIX

Since beginning in 2002 in a small cellar in Bad Muskau, close to the Polish border, until the present, based in Berlin. We now sell Project: Mooncircle vinyl and cds in stores across the world: Berlin, London, Tokyo, New York, LA, San Francisco, Melbourne. We bring music with a message and with quality and content to our fans. The music industry and the media form the taste of too many listeners of the 21st century. This should not be the way; No ear should be feed with monotonous, stupid music. We are proud of our 50 releases of uncompromised, honest music. Selfish, lazy and avaricious dreamers have been ignored successfully and we are looking forward to the next 50 releases, to growing the label, to growing our artists and to starting our sub label Project Squared.

We are proud to present to you a mix of the best from 50 PMC catalogue numbers. 30 songs by nearly 30 artists together in an amazing 50 minute set. We invite you into a journey trough the past 7 years of Project: Mooncircle’s Hip Hop and Electronica based sound. Sit back and enjoy.

The mix included acts such as John Robinson, Mr Cooper, Lambent, Robot Koch, Lewis Parker, Evil Ed, Obba Supa, Jahbitat, CYNE, Scienz of Life, 40 Winks, Dday One, Nongenetic of Shadowhuntaz, Strand, Glen Porter, Mathematik, Aether, Inner Science, Epstein, Manuvers, Kan Sano and more.

Much love to all our listeners, distributors, supporters and artists for every second of your art and attention.

Thanks to Gordon Gieseking, Paul Cooper, Thomas Ulrich, John Robinson, Xndl, Thimo Hörster, Tomohiro Yang, Susann S., Sarah R., S. Marie A., Andy K. & La Mano Fria for their contributions over the last 7 years. This mix is for you.
